March

Sousa would love this file. These all need a bit of work---they tend too sound a bit to ponderous and/or heavy. The sequences assume 4 chords per bar, but most marches are in 2/4 time. So, double the tempo for "proper" results.

MilIntro4

A 4 bar military-style intro. Easy to use if you include a line like "z * 4" at the start of the piece. (4)

MilIntro2

A 2 bar military-style intro. This is identical to the MilIntro4, but only uses the first 2 bars of the sequence. (2)
